21s too expensive for tires, 22's i think are too big. i'd do 20's or 19's

In my opinion, anything over 19" will just add unnecessary weight and drag and hinder performance. (But if all you care are looks, then the sky is the limit).

I think 19" is the perfect size for the 4G without compromising ride quality, I'd stick some nice light weight 19"s on it, something of the forged iteration

I have the same ride, nice choice! Simple mods are side body moldings and splash guards. There's a post in the main section where you can see my body moldings & guards, which I feel are a perfect compliment to break up the rather large door. Also the splash guards are a huge mod that is easy to install and I feel help the contour of the car.

The 17" stock rims suck ass and I still hate mine, but $$$ issues these days kept me from upgrading, plus I'm leasing, so that's should be heavily considered for you! 19 or 20's would be sweet. I hate the hold drop thing as it looks "ricey" and too custom. Stay classy! Good luck and congrats.

funny you mention that... as i was taking delivery of the car i asked my sales person if i was being charged for the package that includes the splash gaurds,trunk tray,wheel locks and some other things he said no and that he threw it in and that he would take the blame for it later because he said they lost money on that......and im not really fealing the side body moldings i know theyre really helpful but i like the way the car look s without em.

I have the 18's and I think they are nice. With the optional wheels, the cars looks much better then stock. I get compliments all the time, almost as much as my NC
